The co-labs are awesome and I try to watch 'em all, but I think that Mindcrack has some problems with large colabs. It's hard to get the whole crew together at the same time. Even if you split them up by timezone you have viewing issues. I'm sure that whenever there is a colab most views go to the most popular mindcracker. I think it helps with exposure for them, but will likely result in fewer over-all views. I'm sure they know about the power of the colab and do what they can to make them happen. I just think there are some hurdles we are not aware of.

I don't think so, I remember that Pak's subs were boosted quite a lot when Paul and Etho, the most popular mindcrackers, who were both on his team died in a UHC and people wanted to see the conclusion of the team.

I'm just sayin, if there's more than one view of the same event there will be fewer over-all views. On the other hand, I'm certain it helps with subs. A smaller channel being seen on a larger channel will always cause an increase. This is the good thing. ... But, why would Guude want to colab with Bdubs and Etho? Who wins in that battle?

If by "they should do more" you mean this shouldn't be the last collaboration, then yes, and you probably didn't even need to say that, because it's exceedingly likely that there will continue to be collaborations.

If by "they should do more" you mean the rate of production should increase, I don't think that's the best idea. They're super special, and hard to do, and hard to plan, and probably best as a relatively rare event that we can all look forward to.

It would be a lot of work, but have a few people on each team(if a team based map) record, and then have a eye-in-the-sky camera. It could all get edited together and be put up on the Mindcrack Network channel.

The problem with this is, you're going to watch the perspective of the Mindcracker you like the most and be done with it. I watched the Building Game from Guude's perspective and that was all I needed.

Whereas events like UHC, where I have no idea what's going on, I'll watch each perspective (or at least one per team).

I'm not trying to discourage collabs. The Building Game seemed like it was fun to record and easy to edit. However, I think the Mindcrackers do an appropriate number of collabs and solo work (considering YouTube views is a large part of their income).

yea the larger colabs are always more popular, take the end of season 3/start of season 4 for instance, far more activity on the server/subreddit and im sure view counts of all involved

its been said that timezones and scheduling is a big reason why they dont and they did, at one time, organise a regular time for all mindcrackers to aim to be on at, i think they should bring that back in full force, perhaps even two times for those in different locations, would be a great mindcrack feature

on this note, i recently started watching the rooster teeth minecraft lp where its always a group of them doing something silly was soo good

I'd like to see a continuous build that one person at a time works on in short increments. Kind of like Death Games only with a build project. HermitCraft (I think) did something similar, it ended up being extremely cool.

it's stuff like this that keeps me away from this subreddit, you honestly think they don't do as many collabs because they don't want to? They try to do collabs as much as possible but most of the time they can't because of time zone differences, job, family, makes it very hard to be on at the same time. I mean look at the people online in the server during videos, you never see everyone online at the same time, you would be lucky to have more than 4 at once.
